A couple of days ago I returned from Rio; Cyprus is impressive. The most vivid memory of Kykkos. Monastery.
And now, in order, about what is usually important for me when choosing;
The hotel is a good four, questions only to the number of rooms.
The hotel is divided into two Rio Sapria Maris and Rio Sapria Bay. In the first, we were lucky with the territory, from all sides, in the second, if the side is on the sea, then it is a dump, BUT the rooms are more luxurious and the hall is like that of 5k. So it's up to you. If I chose again, I would still stop at Rio Maris. As for entering the sea. There is a sand area. But specific algae make the entrance unpleasant, my 6 year old son also entered from a wooden platform; So no problem. The pools are clean and varied. Near the bar there is a jacuzzi (party place))))) Vodopadiki. Very nice. The territory along the coast is one of the five greenest. Not very big, but enough space for everyone. AMAZING, but everything is in order with the animation, which is rare for Cyprus.
Nutrition. Maybe there is no such useless variety as hotels in Turkey, but for every taste and without soy. Mussels, shrimp, meat - always. Breakfast is also enough to diversify.
Room cleaning daily. Only once did I leave a tip. Swans twisted, cleaned cleanly, changed the bed every other day. So I'm happy with the service. If there were any nuances, they are insignificant. The water went out and they fixed it within an hour.
Receiving Party: Atika Holiday. Norik - all in a timely manner. And clearly on excursions.
Alas, they failed with the flight, the office did not send a fax about the flight delay. So the early rise was not very pleasant due to the postponed departure. But I think it's private. Purely human factor.
Excursions. There are nuances that you need to know in advance.
The bird park is worth a look. A little dirty, because the birds "walk" where they go, but pheasants and peacocks go where they want, like our pigeons. You need to go in the morning, because (they didn’t warn us about this) the last minibus leaves the Park back at 1.00, and the park itself is open until 2.00. No one will call you a taxi, and it’s unrealistic to get from there. They have a hard time with transport. Almost all of them drive cars.
From the hotel to the center of Paphos and along the promenade and along the road about 20 minutes.
Liked the archaeological site. Worth going.
From excursions chose the Grand Tour. Half a day is nothing. The only place for which I would come to Cyprus again is the monastery of Kykkos. Very interesting story. The temple itself is a solid fresco. Amazing place. Souvenirs are all expensive. Ride with your crosses, which can be consecrated by touching the icon of the Mother of God, one of the three icons painted by St. Luke during the life of the Mother of God and blessed by her. Truly a relic. But, there are nuances The nature of the entire Grand Tour impressed, but it is almost impossible to photograph it in motion. There was a professional guide, Katerina, she is very smart, she told a lot of things, but it was something like this: behind that hill is this and that, and five kilometers from us is Nicosia, she is famous for that and that. And the arrival in Lefkara is purely commercial, so that tourists buy absurdly expensive silver, including filigree weaving and Lefkara embroidery. But when you're on tour, you don't get it. The same option with the village, where there was a wine tasting. It is tiring to drive for such a long time, especially if you can buy wine in duty free. But Kykkos is worth it. Alternative - Unknown Cyprus. It passes many useless stops and nature is more beautiful.
Cars for rent at every step. BUT the Cypriots themselves do not recommend (of course, not the sellers of cars; )) There are many of us who cannot adapt to left-hand traffic - accidents are a regularity.
Bottom line: happy with the ride. The child was bored due to the fact that there were few Russian-speaking children. There is a daytime kids club; ) Although I would prefer an evening one)))
